of the motor and ambient temperature condi-
tions).

function is deactivated when a different gear is
selected.
NOTE
On vehicles with the optional rain sensor, the
tailgate wiper will be activated when reverse
is selected, if the rain sensor is activated and
it is raining.
If the tailgate wiper is in the normal (continuous)
wiping mode, selecting different gears will not
affect its function.
